Summary: How to be a 40+ Fit Man
Comment: It is a fitness book to meet the needs of men in their mid-30s and beyond. The exercises in the book are good except that most requires you to be at a gym as it requires equipment - unlike Jorge Cruise's "Eight Minutes in the Morning".
The nutrition and the suggestions on how to look young are also instructive.
Rating: 5
Summary: "Realistic" fitness with solid advice
Comment: How refreshing to read a fitness book that doesn't pander to the "chiseled chic" set, or promise 20 inch biceps in 20 hours.
Paris's "PRIME" is exactly what it bills itself as: a realistic approach to fitness (physically, mentally and nutritionally) for the 40 year old man. The book copiously details goal setting as a necessary step prior to commencing a well thought out fitness program. Bob also details three variations of fitness programs for the beginner or more advanced individual, and allows room for variations for those of us with more than a passing familiarity with the weight room. The nutrition section is incredibly detailed, and is a very valuable resource for people interested in sensible balanced eating as opposed to "diet-of-the week" trends which seem to dominate best sellers lists.
The book contains very nice photographs which, suprisingly, illustrate practical, attainable results, as compared to the oiled, steroid-inflated image most publishers try to sell us on.
I threw away a pack of Marlboros after reading page 40 of this book.
This, like any other fitness guide, isn't going to supply "instant motivation" for those who can't see their way into the gym. For those of us who have made workouts an important (and neccesary) part of our lifestyle, however, Bob Paris has supplied us with a genuine gem - solid advice, practical exercise, smart nutrition, and direct motivation. This is a 5 star thank you to him.
